ANNOUNCING

NEW CLOSED-LOOP CONTROL SYSTEMS READY FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE!

DTI is pleased to announce the commercial release of closed-loop control systems of its popular range of high-performance injection-molded piezo motors. The initial closed-loop models available include, linear piezo motor Model #’s; LPM-2M and LPM-5 and rotary Model #’s; PM-1124R- HS and PM-1124- SS. Additional closed-loop systems are planned for release later this year.

In the closed-loop system, motion control of the piezo motor is achieved via feedback generated from an optical encoder integrated within the motor assembly. Encoder communication electronics consists of a daughter board (pcb) with a serial (RS-232) port, mounted onto the main driver board. Optional programmable logic control (PLC) software with graphical user interface (GUI) enables control of the motor using standard Windows OS.

THE POTENTIAL

At Discovery Technology International, we are leading the way in Piezoelectric Motor Technology. See some of the key benefits of choosing Piezoelectric motors over traditional Electromagnetic motors:

Energy & Cost Savings

DTI’s piezo motors operate at low voltage (e.g. 12 VDC, customizable down to 4.5 VDC) and have increased energy efficiency. They are designed for direct-drive applications where the need for a gearhead is eliminated altogether.

non-magnetic

DTI’s piezo motors are available in non-magnetic configurations making them ideal for specialized applications where traditional DC motors cannot be used (e.g. medical MRI)

Unique Properties

DTI’s piezo motors are scalable in design (rotary and linear), can be operated silently and consume zero energy in hold position.

Environmental

DTI’s piezo motors are immune from electromagnetic interference (EMI /RFI) and do not contain any rare earth elements (REE’s).

AEROSPACE INDUSTRY

From piezoelectric motors for use in aircraft cabin equipment to miniature robotic systems for use in satellites, DTI offers a broad range of high performance solutions for high precision motion control systems.
